2 funny teabag. Your pick would be my 3rd choice..I think Fiennes would do just as well as Haley. I picked Haley because in my opinion he was fantastic in Watchmen

MarkCassidy - 8/12/2009, 10:46 AM
They would all be good. I originally went with Hayley but he is a little slight i think. So i gave the vote to Micklesson.

@teabag: Please tell me what movie Mikklesen is in in your first picture up there, its on the tip of my tongue but I can't think of what it is.

Jackie Earle Haley for Red Skull!!!!

spideysweb - 8/12/2009, 10:48 AM
@LEEE DDL would not even be my 4th pick.

Obviously, I'm not going to share my vote just yet because I don't want to influence any of the voting, but I think this is our strongest poll yet, in that all of these actors are talented and would make top-notch choices.

To be honest, like many, my initial thought was Hayley, because he's just so creepy as Rorschach.

Then, someone suggested Fiennes and his Voldemort is a pretty good proto-Skull character.

When someone suggested Mikkelsen, I immediately changed my mind and thought that he had the right look and creepy charisma to pull off the part.

However, after watching There Will Be Blood last night, I can easily see Lewis as the Skull. Lewis has an incredibly "presence" and a commanding voice. I could picture him both standing up to his boss--Hitler--and shouting threats at Captain America.

Whats nice is that if Brent can contact these actors, one of them actually would do it for the fans. Jackie Earle Haley would do a role just for fans.

Frank Langella for Red Skull, I mean after all he rocked as Skeletor.
StephenStrange
StephenStrange - 8/12/2009, 11:05 AM
I would ba happy with any of these, but my fave out of the lot is DDL.
Even so I really doubt he would do it. He's SO selective aboutthe roles he takes on.

You almost never even hear the guys name unless it's in connection with some kind of critically acclaimed, Oscar nominated, mega hit that everybody loves.

WulfComicFan - 8/12/2009, 11:06 AM
@ LEEE, you are becoming a bitter bitter man these days bro!

I voted for Hayley, but, he is locked into like three more Freddy movies I heard.

Oh and BTW @LEEE, He'll make an awesome Freddy, just different from Robert Englund.

LEEE777 - 8/12/2009, 11:06 AM


QUALITY ACTOR!

Think =

BRANDO, NICHOLSON, NORTON etc, serious actors give that something EXTRA to the character and make it their own!!! ; )

* Nine (2009) (post-production) .... Guido Contini

* There Will Be Blood (2007) .... Daniel Plainview

* The Ballad of Jack and Rose (2005) .... Jack Slavin

* Gangs of New York (2002) .... Bill 'The Butcher' Cutting

* The Boxer (1997) .... Danny Flynn

* The Crucible (1996) .... John Proctor

* In the Name of the Father (1993) .... Gerry Conlon

* The Age of Innocence (1993) .... Newland Archer

* The Last of the Mohicans (1992) .... Hawkeye (Nathaniel Poe)

* My Left Foot: The Story of Christy Brown (1989) .... Christy Brown


No contest! ; )

DANIEL DAY-LEWIS FOR THE RED SKULL!!!

BrutalDuke
BrutalDuke - 8/12/2009, 11:06 AM
I got a question before i vote. How old is Red Skull compared to Cap when they first went up against each other? Also do you think they will include abit of Red Skulls back round in the movie like how he met hitler and got his Skull Mask.
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 8/12/2009, 11:09 AM
WULF @ FREDDY will be good as the last FRIDAY the 13TH REMAKE lol!

An TY heh heh. ; D
MIDAS
MIDAS - 8/12/2009, 11:09 AM
I also would be happy with any of these picks, but I'm going for Jackie Earle Hayley. He played a good lunatic in Watchmen, and I believe he'll be a good Freddy.
WulfComicFan
WulfComicFan - 8/12/2009, 11:11 AM
Nothing wrong with Friday the 13th. It was NOT a remake, it was just a continuation. C',om LEEE, when I first got here, I thought you had some insighted stuff to say. What happened to that guy?
LEEE777
LEEE777 - 8/12/2009, 11:11 AM
MIDAS @ Hayley is FIVE FOOT nothing, against CAP would be stupid!!!

TEA @ Heh heh! ; D

WULF @ Seriously i hope FREDDY is good, but chances are it wont! An have you not seen the last vote?

A FREDDY VS JASON VS ASH would've be the Ultimate HORROR movie!!! ; )
WulfComicFan
WulfComicFan - 8/12/2009, 11:12 AM
I didn't think he'd do good as Freddy till I saw Watchmen. Now I'm sold.
WulfComicFan
WulfComicFan - 8/12/2009, 11:13 AM
Hey LEEE, have you ever seen any Stallone movies? They make him look taller than he is, and hes only like 5 foot 9 or so.
JoshWilding
JoshWilding - 8/12/2009, 11:15 AM
Though Haley was my first choice and id still be happy for him to win, as i said on the Bucky results article, i think Mads Mikkelsen would make a much better, threatening villain (as seen in Casino Royale!) so thats who gets my vote!!

WulfComicFan
WulfComicFan - 8/12/2009, 11:15 AM
@ Teabag, very true.
